Please answer these questions before submitting your issue. - Why do you submit this issue? - [ ] Question or discussion - [ ] Bug - [ ] Requirements - [ ] Feature or performance improvement - [ ] Other ___ ### Why The Authentication plugins, e.g: `basic-auth` `openid-connect` and other auth plugins supported by Apisix should work with consumer together. Only when one auth plugin is enabled and configed correctly can a consumer be created or modified, and can access a route which is also enabled the same auth plugin. At the same time, a route of a service can enabled the auth plugin without any configs(even if configured here, the auth plugin configuration of consumer will matched by default). RIght now, the auth plugins can be configed both in consumer and route, but the auth config in route doesn't really work, and it will Induce user that only the configed consumer can access the route. So it would be better to improve the UE of config auth plugins. ### Proposal 1. the authentication plugins should be enabled with configuration.  1. the authentication plugins should be only shown with a switch to enabled/disabled.  1. right now if a route enabled two auth plugins, it should be matched with this two auth token, In fact, it is not possible for users to access the same route using two or more different authentication methods. so it would be better to only enabled one auth plugin in route (or ). ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
